I had a next door neighbor on Sorolla off of Granada ave in the Gables who had been there since the 40s and still called it My-Am-Uh....lol.....she felt isolated...sadly. I NEVER met a Florida Cracker in either Miami (where I lived from 99-02) or Boca Raton (90-94). It seems that everyone in South Florida (Dade, Broward, Palm Beach) either has a Latin accent, a Noo Yawk accent or a West Indian accent.

She was a widow in her 70s and was probably the only one I knew come to think of it. Now, down around Redlands or Homestead or out on Krome, it was more likely to meet a Miami Southron.
Not too many Southrons in Florida period south of Lake Ockechobee anymore.
